檔案閱覽抄錄複製收費標準

This Standard is prescribed in accordance with Article 21 of the Archives Act, paragraph 1 of Article 13 of the Political Archives Act, and Article 10 of the Charges and Fees Act.

For those who have been permitted to view, hand-copy, or duplicate records shall be charged a fee in accordance with this Standard. However, for records other than political archives that are subject to other laws or regulations, fees may be charged in accordance with those provisions.

The fee for viewing or hand-copying the government agency records is NT$20 for every two hours or any part thereof. No fee is charged for viewing or hand-copying the archives.

The fee for duplicating records shall be charged in accordance with the Table of Fee-charging Standard for Duplicating of Records set forth in the attachment, and such duplication shall be made with the equipment available at that agency. For the duplication made with personal mobile phones, cameras, video camcorders, etc., with the consent of the government agency, the fee for viewing or hand-copying such records shall be in accordance with Article 3.

If an applicant requests that duplicated records be sent by e-mail or be delivered by other electronic storage media, the government agency may determine the format and the expense of the electronic storage media in its discretion; if an applicant requests that duplicated records be sent by conventional mail, the actual postage plus a one-time handling fee of NT$50 shall be charged.

When a person mentioned in a political archive who has been arrested, subject to an investigation or inquiry, prosecuted, named in an arrest warrant, placed on trial, subject to compulsory enforcement, or otherwise mistreated by a public authority (hereinafter referred to as a party to the subject matter of archives) applies to access political archives related to a matter in which he/she was involved, fees for viewing or hand-copying shall not be charged; for each such archive, the duplication fee, consumables, postage fee, and the handling fee shall be waived once. In regard to format, the applicant will be given a choice between a black-and-white photocopy thereof and electronic storage media thereof. When the party to the subject matter of an archive in paragraph 1 is deceased, the same shall apply to the party’s spouse or heirs provided in Article 1138 of the Civil Code. With respect to the fees that were waived upon the implementation of this amended article on October 22, 2019, any applicant who paid such fees to duplicate archives at any time between July 14, 2011 and February 8, 2013 may apply for a refund by furnishing the fee receipt or the duplicated archives.

The fees set out in this Standard shall be conducted in accordance with the budgetary procedure.

This Standard shall come into force from the date of promulgation.
